I haven't tried it, but I assume they'd have to get Bonjour working too.

Anyone close by with a Mac you could try this out with?

Oh, and for the record, I've had a bit of trouble on most public networks getting the iTunes sharing to work since I think the IT guys have probably somehow disabled it. Hopefully they won't have done the same with your network and iChat.

ok.... so i got bonjour! and ichat working.... but no one is showing up.
What do i do now? I used a AIM account.

Gah! i want to see it work!

The thing is most of the people you are sharing music with are using PC's. Bonjour through iChat does not have a PC counterpart. If you know a Mac user on the network, try asking them to go on iChat with Bonjour/Rendezvous activated and see if they become online on your Bonjour/Rendezvous list.

PC types can use rendevous for chat, but only if they are using a chat program that supports. The only one that I know of is Trillian.
